FCC to cut school net funding

The FCC has decided that they will be cutting school net funding by around 43%. This questionable move came after intense pressure in Congress, and partially because the telcos promised to raise rates to pay their share of it, something that the FCC dearly wants to avoid. I dunno-maybe it's just me, but trying to put net access in schools to help create more wired kids-the whole decision to do it, and do it right seems like a no-brainer.
